Researchers have fully characterized graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with a clear route towards upscaling the production. Two-dimensional sheets of graphene in the form of ribbons a few tens of nanometers across have unique properties that are highly interesting for use in future electronics.

The measurements performed at the MAXPEEM beamline were done with a technique not requiring X-rays. The beamline will go into its commissioning phase this spring.
